Botanicus Interacticus is a technology for
designing highly expressive interactive
plants. It allows to use such gestures as
sliding fingers on the stem of the orchid,
detecting touch and grasp location,
tracking proximity between human and a
plant, and estimating the amount of touch
contact, among others.
